A gray-haired woman in round glasses and a blue blazer sits at a desk, smiling brightly at a man shown from behind (dark hair, green shirt). She says: "We asked 'Can you put in weekends for your first six months?' You answered 'Yes.' Accounting says I can award you a ONE DOLLAR RAISE." Her cheerful, prize-announcer delivery frames the insultingly tiny raise like a gameshow win. Caption below: "What if life is just the worst gameshow ever?" Votey: a manic, fluffy-outlined grinning cartoon face announces with gameshow-host glee, "Guess what!? It's a round of RESTRUCTURING!"
